 - some input is required by the action but it is not set at `with:`
 - input set at `with:` is not defined in the action (this commonly occurs by a typo)
 
 this is done by checking `with:` section items with a small database collected at building `actionlint` binary. actionlint
 can check popular actions without fetching any `action.yml` of the actions from the remote so that it can run efficiently.
